All About Romance
“I loved A Heart of Blood and Ashes. Full stop. […] Maddek is the classic badass barbarian – fierce, capable, confident, sexy, strong – but he more than meets his match when he finally meets Yvenne, the woman he’s sworn to kill.” —Desert Isle Keeper Review, All About Romance
Publishers Weekly
“Combining the scope of an epic fantasy with the scorching sex scenes of erotic romance, Meljean Brook (the Iron Sea Series), writing as Vane, makes a splash with this enemies-to-lovers romance that kicks off her A Gathering of Dragons series…Fans of Jacqueline Carey’s Kushiel trilogy will be hooked.” —Publishers Weekly

“Yvenne and Maddek’s love story is strong, and fraught with hope. It’s also hot as hell. Their chemistry fairly burned off the pages. And more than once I had to stop and breathe…A Heart of Blood and Ashes, I already know just 6 days into the year, will be my favorite book this year.” —Angela, The Alliterates
